Oh, you like Common music videos?

Here's the latest one off his record The Dreamer, The Believer.



And a few more that he's released in support of that project over the last couple of months. Come on, get careless - watch some youtube videos.

Two mixtapes that you probably have already

I don't know how I missed this, since Curren$y is someone I actively search for new material from on a nearly daily basis, BUT! I did, until just this afternoon. Normally, I try to be all cutting edge here at Keystrokes and Cigarette Smoke, but when I'm behind the curve, I'm not ashamed to admit it. Here is a download link to the Jet Life mixtape Jet World Order. Get it because I say so, and thank yourself on your own time.

For similar reasons, I haven't posted the new T.I. mixtape Fuck Da City Up. It is really great, though, honestly. If you don't already have it, do yourself a favor and download it right here. It's got a great set of features ranging from
Pusha T and Young Jeezy to Dr. Dre, and it's really more of a free album than a run-of-the-mill mixtape. Enough catching up, now. Tomorrow, come back for more fresh tracks.

Free MP3 Download: Grimes - Genesis

I've been putting off checking out this new tune by Grimes. I'm not exactly sure why, but it's true. However, now that I have listened to it, I have to say it's excellent. Maybe that's why - I don't like feeling like I'll have to like something if I hear it. In any case, here's the new track Genesis from the forthcoming record Visions. Also, everything else she's done. It really is excellent. Airy, ethereal pop music from a young, talented musician. Listen. Enjoy. Download. Right now. Fo' free.

Free MP3 Download: Georgia Anne Muldrow and Madlib - Seeds

Word is, Madlib has produced the entirety of Georgia Anne Muldrow's new album, Seeds If this first single is any indication of what's to come, I'm even more excited than I usually am when a new Madlib project surfaces. Psychedelic soul is the buzzword that's been getting thrown around with this first single, and it seems pretty spot on as a way of describing it. So, without further ado, here is an MP3 link, courtesy of Rolling Stone, that will allow you to download the song for free a month or so before the single drops on digitally iTunes and on 7" through Fat Beats. Don't even kid yourself, just download it. I only made it playable as a formality. Madlib always deserves a permanent place in your library.
